What’s this week’s question? Let’s dive straight in…

Question: We played this game in St. Louis one time with a large group of people and you passed one card around the table. Does that sound familiar to anyone?
Answer: depends on variatiions. my variation is:

set out three stacks of money (3 one dollar bills, three quarters, three poker chips. three whatevers)

everyone gets one card per deal(deal is passed,or at least the person with first choice is passed each deal)

a king is flipped up immediately and is a blocker. no one can trade cards with a king.

after that the first person is asked if he wants to keep his card or trade with player number two (assuming #2 has no king). #2 then is asked to change with number three, etc the last person can trade with the top of the deck.

if any of the players has the king (like player #3) player #2 can not pass and is stuck with the card he ends up with

once everyone passes or stays, flip over the cards. the player with the lowest card (or players if there is a tie, and aces are low) puts one stack in the pot.

when a player has nothing left to put in the pot they are out of the game.

the last player with a pile left wins

    I consulted my BIG BOOK (The New Complete Hoyle Revised) and I am sorry to inform you the game does not exist. If it existed, it would be listed. Hoyle is the ultimate authority, take it from me, the Queen of Games, thusly dubbed due to my massive game collection and love of all things game, anyhow, it is not even a variant of a game, I looked. It must've been a local game invented by the people you were playing it with or someone they knew. Why not contact them?
